Poppink is a 17-year veteran of the firm who previously headed its highly successful and widely respected Silicon Valley operations and who advises some of the Valley’s premier companies. He will continue to serve key clients in the region and nationally, and now also oversees one of JLL’s largest and fastest-growing regional platforms.

These services are provided across all major industry sectors including office and industrial/logistics; technology and advanced manufacturing; retail; multifamily; hospitality; data centers and life sciences.
In Northern California, Poppink will be responsible for 10 corporate offices in the Bay Area and Sacramento, including major offices in San Francisco, Menlo Park, Oakland and Walnut Creek.
